I am trying to use Plex to play music through various Echo devices, with the desire to Shuffle music by Album. While the Random Album Radio feature lets me shuffle ALL of my collected music by Album, this doesn’t address my music desire at all. I want to Shuffle Genre by Album, or Shuffle Artist by Album (especially with classical music). This should be a discrete shuffle option with Plex, or found as a play method with playlists (smart or not).
I cannot find any method to achieve these play by album capabilities; maybe I just can’t find it and someone else knows? Thanks in advance for any help here.
Have you tried Plexamp with “Autoplay” enabled?
You’ll tell it what Album (e.g. of a genre) to start playing (or any radio / mix / …) and Plexamp will play on (e.g. the next album of that genre) when the 1st one is done.
Thanks for the suggestion, but I’m trying to get this to work as a routine configured on an Amazon Echo. Is PlexAmp control available with Alexa commands via an Echo device? Plex is, but not sure about PlexAmp?
